    They tried to do one in the Villa game but don't think many noticed or took part unfortunately.

    Probably wasn't very well published on social media etc.

    From Luther :
    "Never a day goes by when i don’t count my blessings for Watford’s greatest ever manager Graham Taylor. His memory and his integrity goes beyond football. He made us, those “ordinary players” achieve the extraordinary. He created better men, better people, a greater community. As he said every shot, every save, that wasn’t just us, that was you too, the fans and the people of Watford.

    He was always honest and told you how it was - and not just what he thought you wanted to hear

    He never forgot where we came from, ever. Boss - we owe you all we had. and all we have #thankyou

    So pleased to hear our fans in full voice in praise of GT this afternoon. I was even more pleased that my TV stream moved away from the action on the pitch to the WFC fans, and the commentator who I didn't know was fully informed about what Graham did for and meant to the club and town. Great moment on a day that he would have been proud of.

    Glad the commentators mentioned it as well.

    Scarf day next weekend.

    If you were watching NBCSN, I think he’s a Watford fan.

    Yes that was where the stream came from, but I didn't hear who the commentator was.
    Is it possible to get a commentator who isn't a Watford fan? :emoticon-0143-smirk
